Re: Point to Point

A point to point T1 is just that. 1.544MB data transfer. I'm not quite sure
what you mean by "5 phone lines and 1 data line". Normally the telco company
providing a point to point is just providing the jacks and you have to
supply the routers. So it's up to you what routers you use. One of the more
cost effective ones are Adtran with a T1 interface.

I assume that the phones are VoIP - because otherwise this wouldn't work.
The networking part is easy. Just use a different subnet at the remote site
and add some static routes. The tricky part are the VoIP phones. In order to
help you there I would need to know what VoIP gateway system you are using.
Are there currently VoIP phones at HQ? If yes, what is the address schema?

Give me some more info and I will be able to point you into the right
direction.

I have a client who is looking to do point to point about 3o miles apart.

At one site (Site A)they are already getting 12 phone lines and 12 data
lines via T1 and are running with a file server and 7 users.

On the other site (Site B) they will be bringing in a point to point T1
line
from the first site with 5 phone lines and 1 data. They are running a SBS
server with Exchange in operation and 7 users. They will be maintaining a
DSL
line for Internet on this site.

They are hoping to keep SBS functioning and add the users from the first
location to the second.

My thought was to bring the point to point from site A through a router
into
Site B's existing Linksys 2024 switch. The router would break the voice
lines
over to their telco controller and the data line to the Linksys switch.
This
would then put all the users from Site A to Site B and allow me to add
them
to the existence network.

Any surprises I should be aware of? What router is recommended for Site B?
Any SBS limitations that will hinder this?

My knowledge of voice over IP is not fantastic so bear with me if I am
asking stupid questions here.
